Lamp cord for repair and DIY projects
This two-pack of brown lamp cord is designed for rewiring table lamps, floor lamps and other household lighting. Each length measures eight feet and arrives with a flat polarized plug on one end and stripped, tinned wire ends on the other for quick installation. The rayon cloth covering gives a traditional look while protecting the internal conductors.
18-gauge SPT-2 construction and UL listing
The cord uses 18-gauge, two-conductor SPT-2 wire with a PVC jacket and copper conductors. UL listing confirms it meets recognised safety standards for portable lamp use. In normal operation the cord runs cool and silent, drawing only the power required by the attached lamp without adding noticeable heat or electrical noise.
Not for high-draw appliances or outdoor use
The 18-gauge rating limits this cord to typical lighting loads; it is not suitable for heaters, power tools or other high-current devices. The flat plug and cloth jacket are intended for indoor, dry-location fixtures only. Buyers needing heavier wire, grounded plugs or weather-resistant jackets should select a different product.

Questions about this item
How do I wire the stripped ends of this 18 gauge SPT-2 cord, and what is the common mistake?
The ends are pre-stripped and tinned; connect the smooth conductor to the brass screw and the ribbed conductor to the silver screw on the lamp socket — reversing them is the frequent error.
What part of this lamp cord will need replacement first with normal use?
The polarized plug or the rayon cloth covering may wear or fray before the internal copper conductors, requiring a new cord set.
What is the first limitation I will hit if I run a high-wattage bulb continuously on this 18 gauge cord?
The 18 gauge SPT-2 rating limits the safe current draw, so sustained high-wattage loads can cause the cord to overheat before any other component fails.
